Somewhere Near Forever
"Letting go" isn't
easy
but it's something one
must do
if one wishers
to achieve the goal
Hanging on to the past
is a sure road
to
despair
Let joys fly
from your hands
as well as your
sorrows
You'll find peace
somewhere near forever
and, yes, at times
the road will be rocky
and lined with thorns
it's hard to shake off
the growth of things
which has gone
on for many years
But as I said before
somewhere near
forever
is the place where
you can touch joy
and I'm sure
you'll make it through
the rainfall of today
and tomorrow
